Love your videos
These tips and tricks can actually hold me to 2000.
Please do a video about the perc defense
2 view is mine
Hey Igor, Could you please do a video on the Hedgehog Defense? I see a lot of GMs play it like Anatoly Karpov and would like to see how it can be strong for all levels of play.
12:42 Bxg7 is actually a blunder because of Bxf2 Ke2 Bg4 wining the white queen.
Thank you
Can we appreciate what a good teacher this man is? Best chess videos ever. And yes, I'm a Gotham sub too, but I only sac my rook when it is one of your strategies. And it actually works! ❤👍
It took a while for me to figure out that as a beginner I should have set puzzles to the hanging pieces motif and just practiced that for a year. But you are definitely right it only takes a day to reach a thousand. After that it's quite a bit slower.
im currently at 1200 elo and i know this video will help me a lot!
This is Gold. Thank you
"Maybe he is a Gotham subscriber and wanted to sacrifice a rook" LOL…. Nice dig.
Thank you GM for your great advices, dedication and love for the chess..Your videos are the best 👏🙏
Your not kidding we do love that stuff!!!
Have you got a video on attacking principles and concepts Igor??
I purchased a tactics at chess book and I'm studying there are so many or some rules I don't know , and I'm watching analyze videos on yt and I'm solving puzzles my free time that's it my studying chess program
I am at 1600. So now what? By the way, I really love your chess videos, thanks for sharing them!
The goat Igor
after i started following you, i got very good at playing against scholars mate, knight pins and even fried liver attack(that pattern i created my self). and i also loves the fishing pole trap. so you are something special, with your aggressive way of playing.
I'm a beginner trying to improve and trying to lear some openings for white and black. I'd like to take notes in my little chess notebook to keep close to me when playing my friends… but I don't know how to take notes properly, chess coordinate notation I can read, but I can't visualize which tile it is. I always need to count from a,d,e,h and 1,4,5,8, any combination of those I can point quickly, others need to move from there to position the tile. Are there any exersices to learn, is it necesary or will it slowly interiorize as I keep playing more? what does the people suggest?
Also, back to my original question, any good practices when taking chess notes? I'd like to complete my little notebook to take to the club instead of relying on the phone or some youtube videos when practicing.
The main thing I am working on is: slowing down and reassessing the board after every move.
hi Igor, your example at around 13:30 is actually a blunder if Bg7. Black can capture Bxf2, white king can't capture or the d1 Queen is hanging, it can't move to d2 as black queen covers it. So, the king can only go to e2, then the other bishop to g4 will skewer the king and the queen on e2 and d1. White will lose a queen in all lines no matter what!
I was at 1000 ELO for ages, but thanks to your videos I reached 1250 ELO today for the first time. I know it's nothing amazing but I'm so happy 😂
i highly recommend playing rapid or 10 min as it allows you to properly think through each move and not make silly mistakes or blunders
It never hurts to go back and rethink those fundamentals.
Thank you igor ❤.

I don't know what ELO I have because I only play against the computer. I once won against a computer at 1500 ELO. I didn't even try to play at a higher level.
i am 910 elo right now i started playing chess in 2022 July
I sometimes get frustrated when i lose 2-3 games in a row
But I am 13 right now so i think i have a lot of time to improve but anyways any tips to reach 1000 elo ?
The best chess coach 🔥
I'm Exactly a 1600 player now and a big reason for that is GM Igor and his channel!
Thanks!! Next target is 2000 rating…😊😊
Learn chess with New in Chess Yearbooks 1 to 142. Now i win always level 20 Stockfish 8 on the DGT Pi. My goal is in 2 years to beat the DGT Pi. Have now a new goal to beat Deep Blue.
"Maybe he was a Gotham subscriber that wanted to sacrifice a rook" 🙂 Go Igor!! You are far better than that clown. I like when you are aggressive!
I'm 1500 and I'm always surprised when I look at the computer analysis because the tactics I miss on the board suddenly look obvious.
Thank you very much sir.
In the beginning of 2023. Used to be in 1000 to 1100 elo on lichess. After your videos. Im stably steady in 1500++.. still stuck there. Looking something from your videos that can take me to 1800 hopefully by end of this year… Thanks so much GM Igor 🙏
Create a brand new account and start with 1600 and play 0 games.Thats how I am a 1600 player !!
I only play bots so it doesn't affect rating 😂
Pls don't try my strategy ❤😅
I like that little dig on Gotham 😂
How we can get a Grand Master in Chess? Thank you
Hi may i know what was the time format of the games you reviewed rated 1000-1600??
Is it normal to have lower rating in Blitz & bullet??
Haha I got to 1700 in 4 months at 13.
